Barbarian Targets Drug Trafficking and Organized Crime in NL

Project Barbarian, a four-month RCMP investigation targeting drug trafficking and organized crime in Grand Falls-Windsor, resulted in eight people charged this past weekend in relation to multiple transactions of the sale of cocaine.

Six of those charged are members of the 1% Outlaw Motorcycle Gang known as the Outlaws MC, or members of its support club the Fallen Few.

Project Barbarian was a joint initiative between RCMP NL’s Federal Serious and Organized Crime Unit and the Grand-Falls Windsor RCMP.

The RCMP Emergency Response Team assisted in the arrests and containment of the Outlaws MC clubhouse located in Grand Falls-Windsor.
